To The Next Level We Go

We knew that readership in Singapore was huge but now this. We've hit the big time with a veiled reference by XX1090 hosts Scott Kaplan and Billy Ray Smith. Let's not get too carried away. The reference was not by name and was more out of mock disgust and annoyance but hey....what do you expect?

Last week, we here at HATE, were working with XX1090 listener Zino on trying to come up with a good top ten list for why the Chargers' fans should be amped about playing the Patriots. It didn't quite work out though as the Chargers were defeated by the Phish so we went ahead and posted our own version of The Top Ten List last week.

Well, this morning marked the return of Zino's Top 10 (Top Ten Reasons the Chargers Creamed the Patriots) and before his well oiled and thickly accented recitation Zino mentioned that he had a fellow listener who collaborated with him (This Top 10 was all Zino by the way). We believe it went something like this:

Zino: "I had help from a listener....there's this guy who also has a blog and it's dedicated to hating the Patriots."

Scott: "Yea.....we know... there's a few of those out there."

BR: "Hmmm...yea we get his emails."

It was sheer annoyance coupled with disgust from Scott and BR. We also sensed additional indignation from the daily strafing of email reminders sent to their show to promote our drivel. That's what we took from it anyway....we laughed though....and so will you, as Zino has promised to email us the mp3 link of the radio bit. You'll have to be the judge.

Which brings us to the next order of business. Are we Charger fans or Patriot haters? While the two are not mutually exclusive it goes without saying that our allegiance is with the Chargers and tracking their season...not that of the Patriots.

The last three months have been part of a mass marketing campaign to hype the match-up, that was to be Three parts Vengeance (past 3 defeats) and One part History (ending the Pat's 23 game regular season winning streak). Unfortunately that recipe unraveled with the injury to Brady and the Charger's inauspicious start. But none the less, the game took on a whole new meaning when it looked as though our season was on the line especially when considering the arduous road journey in store for the Chargers over the next two weeks.

The blog is up and running and it was inspired by the Charger/Patriot match-up. It has a URL devoted to hating the Patriots but make no mistake about where our true passions emanate. We hate the Patriots but love American symbols of patriotism.

(Patriot fans just think that patriotism stems from following their team)
(Click above link for hottest exhibit of Patriotism ever)

We are , foremost, Charger and Padre fans who have been tortured through-out time. The torture has only become greater with the increased expectations of each professional club only to have those expectations collapse before us each season. Our expectation is that the torture will subside this year. The Chargers are alive and have a chance.........at immortality!

We must now champion the Patriots this coming Monday night....they get the Donkeys at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Mass....it hurts but we need a strong effort (Bill... feel free to borrow the Spycam off of our logo...get an edge).

(We will do a couple more things at the expense of the Patriots this week....such as "Express yourself through Haiku" and "Forum Crashing with Morons for Morons" then the focus of this blog will shift, primarily to the torture that is San Diego Fanhood.

It is a torture we embrace as nirvana is just around the Bodhi (Palm) Tree.

For those who have supported....CHEERS!

To those who have said, "Get a life!", we say,....."YOU FIRST!"

What are you doing spending your time reading retarded blogs like this anyway? That's like a Face Painter at a game calling a Body Painter, a LOSER! Pot meet kettle!)

A Patriotic Beatdown

(Picture Title: Brady and Moss/A Strained Relationship--we would say that his missus was upset about the abuse being heaped on them but she was jawing back....he on the other hand was....irritated. Good Sports all in all!)

Where to begin after months of hype? We'll start with the thanks!

Chef and John: Awesome job with the pig.Tasted great and it was selfless of you guys to put in so much time so that others could enjoy.

Tyler: Setting up the bean-bag toss tournament was a good addition to the day. Not easy to defeat Professional drinking game specialists like TimA and Josh.....Good on ya for winning the Championship!

MBlue & RevJim: Well you know!

Alfred: TheRightHandMan

There are many angles we could take to the day but for the most part it seemed to be an example of life imitating art.....Cryptic, I know....not at all a good thing, but we will leave it at that.

When it's all said and done the Chargers needed to win and they did. They needed to win convincingly and they did. The fact that it was against the Patriots sweetened the deal to be sure but we will concede that week 5 wins are not the same as AFCCG wins. It was nice to see all of those New Englanders squirm out with their tails between their legs. With us we took only tales.

We think it would be worth posting a couple of comments, from before and after Charger/Patriot Game from a gentlemen who refers to himself as "Boston Irish". We know...we know....we hate to give credence to anything that a fan from that part of the country says but these comments truly illuminate the message we have been trying to propagate since January 14th, 2007.

THE MESSAGE: THEIR fans think they are BETTER than US! The Pundits say elitism is what cost John Kerry the '04 election....figures....he's from Massachusetts! Look at the comments and tell us if you think they don't reek of elitism and condescension.

Boston Irish said...

Why would any team think that hiring Norv Turner - who never won anywhere was a good idea? At least Schottenheimer's teams looked ok until the playoffs. Or was hiring Norv HONOR-able?

I will take my evil genius and the associated baggage any day.

Also tt{sic} was fantastic for the Red Sox to humiliate a Southern California team yet again - following the Celtics plastering of the over-hyped Lakers and of course the Patriots annual playoff drubbing of the Chargers.

Mr. Irish made those remarks before the game which we refuted in the "I am Jack's Smirking Revenge" comment section. We also asked that he return to "own" the comments if the Pats lost. He did the HONOR-able thing and returned (for some reason he insists on spelling honorable that way...we don't get the emphasis).

Boston Irish said...

Congrats- You beat us in a semi-meaningless game without Tom Brady, Lawrence Maroney and Ben Watson ...

Maybe some day you will beat our real team in a real playoff game that counts ...

Hmmm.....Ben Watson? Are you FUCKING SERIOUS? The first thing any Patriot fan worth his salt, will ever tell you, is that Charger Fan shouldn't make excuses for having LT, PR, and AG, injured during the AFC championship game last year. I agree that you don't make excuses about injuries--we liked our chances with Michael Turner in the back field and The Legend, Phillip Rivers at the helm.

Mr. Irish disagrees because he's a crybaby. The whambulance is coming for you, guy... and all your fans who thought they could forget about the Pats for awhile and bask in the glory that is your Bahston Red Saux.....well that sun is setting and the Rays are risin'. They are embarrassing you at the Fens!

Also......who did you kill to actually get the screen name "Boston Irish"? We get it... everyone there is Irish. Unless you're the hooker for the Boston Irish...yer a douche!

On to the longest road trip in the history of the NFL!


(And yes....those look like the worst seats EVER but there was one bright spot. There was a kid wearing a Rodney Harrison jersey and he was also sporting......a fedora! That made the seat worth it believe me/we/us! There couldn't have been a more abusive section in that stadium!)

It Was A Good Death

It was a good death. Bill was slaughtered this morning and in the Christian and Buddhist traditions we have decided to eulogize him by offering prayers for the sustenance he will provide our people.

Bless us, O Lord,
and these Thy gifts,
which we are about to receive
from Thy bounty,
through Christ our Lord.
Amen.

This food is the gift of the whole universe -
the earth, the sky, and much hard work.
May we live in a way that makes us worthy to receive it.
May we transform our unskillful states of mind,
especially our greed.
May we take only foods that nourish us
and prevent illness.
We accept this food so that we may realise the path of practice.

-Thich Nhat Hanh

GO CHARGERS!!!!!!

The Countdown will shortly read...0:00

The day will start at McGregor's at 9 am and then move on to the tailgate. We'll be in P3 having a good time. Stop on by.

The Series

The Chargers and Patriots have a long and storied history in both the regular season and the post-season. It goes back to 1963 when the Chargers defeated the Boston Patriots, 51-10, in the 1963 AFL Championship Game. Decades later it continued with the Chargers defeating the Pats in 2002 and again in 2005 during the regular season the year after New England won the Super Bowl. The latter, a 41-17 win in Foxboro in 2005, ended New England’s NFL-record 21-game home winning streak. All told, the Patriots lead the series, 20-14-2, and have won three in a row, including that 21-12 win in last year’s AFC title game.

Dan Shaughnessy: "You Suck San Diego!"

I'm wicked bloated.....and red faced as all fockin' hell. Too many Irish Cahh Bahmbs after the clinchuh against those fruitcakes from Anaheim...or Los Angeles...where evuh.

I usually covuh the Red Saux but since we're playin' those queeuhs from San Diego this week I thought I'd recycle some old material from my best selling book, The Curse of the Bambino, to accurately convey what I, along with my fellow New Englanduhs, think of anything related to those powduh blue wearin' homos.

Allow me to quote myself, from my Pulitzuh award winning masterpiece of prose:

...ehem...ehem....

"Red Sox Fans care. That's what makes the Baseball saga irresistible and eternal. Other professional ball clubs fail to win championships, although none has teased like Boston's Olde Towne Team. There's nothing special about the annual flops of the Seattle Mariners and the San Diego Padres, because there is no baseball tradition in those towns and because nobody really cares. It's different with Boston and the Red Sox."

HTP: Hey....We thought that....

DS: Shut up queeuh! I'd be remiss if I did not also mention the following...ehem...

" New England was the first area of America that was truly "finished," so it follows that the oldest game should have the most appeal in this region. In Texas it's established that the only two sports are football and spring football.......and folks in California simply gravitate toward whichever team is currently winning."

HTP: Cut off that shanty Irishman's Aquafina and get him out of here!

Sorry folks we were led to believe that Mr. Shaughnessy was going to be doing a dissertation on the blogosphere, the decreased circulation of dailies and how hack writers, like HATETHEPATRIOTS, mutilate the English language on an hourly basis. We thought we might learn something, a writer's workshop of sorts, and then....booyahh.....ambushed by an Elitist writer from the Boston Globe!

The opinion of east coast writers, major sports networks and fans alike......You Suck San Diego! You're a Joke! (Don't Shoot the messenger because you don't like the message)

On October 12th at 5:15 pm you'll see a 70,000 strong frenzy of Avengers.....who are no joke! The calamity that was perpetrated by some New England Patriot players at the center of Jack Murphy Field on January 14th, 2007 will be avenged...in no uncertain terms.....it must be avenged.

addendum:

Regarding the most recent Adam "Pac Man" Jones incident we must weigh-in.......we weigh 245lbs (beefy) and it's only going to increase after we slit Bill B's throat Sunday morning and mao pig all day long in Section P3.....oh yah, PacMan's an idiot!

Chef..... could you bring the EVACUATION Powder mix for the following week...please.

Top Ten Reasons SD Should Be Going Crazy About The Patriots Coming To Town

This post was inspired by Zino's Top 10:

Top Ten Reasons:

San Diego Should Be Going Crazy
About The Patriots Coming To Town

10. We’ll get to hear even more audio clips on Scott and BR about Junior Seau being
a “backdoor man”!

9. There are so many New England transplants here you can taunt someone new at every
turn.

8. The constant and rolling rumble of 18-1 chants…….all night long on October 12th.

7. The bitter sting for Boston fans knowing that they knocked off the Angels but this
So Cal team helped start the Patriots downward spiral.

6. When Brady is doing interviews on the sideline we’ll get to hear that he’s filming the
sequel to ZOOLANDER in his spare time.

5. The number of asterisk posters this week will make you think that its 2007 and Barry
and the Giants are in town.

4. When Randy Moss finishes with 2 catches again….he’ll go to the Gaslamp and try to
hit a parking enforcement officer like he did in Minnesota…...

3. The settlement from Moss’ crime will help pay off the City of San Diego’s pension issues
for its employees.

2. Bill Belichick is a dick……..

And the #1 reason San Diego should be
Going Crazy about the Patriots coming to town…

1. Win or lose we won’t be warming up our cars and scraping the ice off of our
windshields this winter. SUCK IT BOSTON!!!

Pigs To The Slaughter...

Look Familiar? No, it's not something out of the Texas Chainsaw Massacre. It is a pig.

Hmmm..........

It is none other than little "Zoolander" from our August, 19th post... and sorry animal lovers....but he's in an entirely different state of being. He was much cuter, we assure you.

Back in August we talked of the two pigs we acquired from the San Diego Fair through a High School FFA program and how they were being groomed for a feast, come October 12th. Our "Patriot Pig" was (is) called Bill B. and the cute little fella was called Zoolander.

Little Zoolander's judgement (a.k.a Tom Brady) came the morning of the Raider game so that he could serve as a test run for Chef's Cajachina and let us tell ya.....it was phenomenal.

You are all in for a treat when we slaughter Bill B. on Sunday morning in preparation for the Charger tailgate party. Our butcher will carve him up in the early AM and Chef will take it from there. Not to be missed.

In other news:

In writing a response to the Al Davis Firing of Lane Kiffen we tried to accurately describe the disaster that emanates from the organization that claims to have a "Commitment to Excellence". It only took one phrase to do this. In listing their address we named it as 666 Dysfunction Junction. That was October 2nd. Now we won't lay any copyright on that phrase but we never hear anyone say it...ever.....

SO

....did anyone notice the front page of the UT Sports today? We're not sayin' Kevin Acee lifted anything from this blog but........well they do say "imitation is the most sincere form of flattery". It is however, a little difficult to hear the Chargers being compared to the Raiders in their shared dysfunction but "it is what it is"....to coin a phrase.

Mr. Acee--Keep readin' our Blog!
